The Architectural Imagination

Architecture is both aesthetic expression and technical achievement, and it engages with history, culture, and society. Students in this free course from Harvard University will explore architecture from all of these perspectives, while learning about architectural design, theory, and history. Academics, hobbyists, and aspiring professional architects will learn hands-on skills such as modeling, perspective drawing, and typology while examining examples of both traditional and contemporary architecture. Readers can view the syllabus before enrolling by clicking "Take Course" and scrolling to the Syllabus section. The course is self-paced and estimated to take 3-5 hours each week over the course of 10 weeks. Auditing is free (students may also choose to pay a fee to receive a certificate upon completion). All video lessons include transcripts. A team of four faculty in architecture, architectural theory, and architectural history teach the course. Those interested in additional online classes can explore Harvard's full offerings by clicking the "view all courses" button in the top-left corner of the page.
